I bought my 2005 pearl white GT 6 speed for $28995 including the college rebate. which was basically about $210 below invoice.
but after tag and fees it was $29192. I knew the Finance manager who hooked it up without any haggle.

What's Edmunds? I'm in the same boat, researching for my first new car...er..rx-8...er...both

Edmunds is a car value pricing web site. They are excellent for revealing the invoice price and what folks in your zip are paying for their RX. You can read reviews there and buy a car off of there I think. Edmunds.com

Anything above invoice would be ridiculous since they dealers can’t give the 04’s away.

GM and ford are in the pits as far as moving product.

Check any of the dealers inventories on the mazda website and you will see plenty of 04 that have their prices artificially jacked up (above the 30k) level in a vain effort to sell them by telling customers that they will drop the price and convince the dumb consumer that paying 27k is a good deal since it is 3k below some inflated price.

Not even a loaded 8 is worth more than 26-27 k

Wow what dealerships are you looking at? I want to go there!

sandia8

if I recall the original loaded 8 was msr'ed arround 30,100
now the same cars are listed at 32-35k for 04 model at a lot of dealers
(get real and smell the coffee) i'm in CA and they are not selling

try a few dealers in new mexico (zip codes 88001 area 87122) el paso tx or AZ
got mine in AZ (dealer tried to add on clearcoat, tint)etc. at $2k more
you know you can clear coat your any car for about $3.00 but the tint would go for up to $300 to $600

they had marked the car up 2k over msrp, but were happy to dump at way under
true dealer invoice , not that edmunds number you all quote

You traveled all the way to AZ from Cali to pick up the car?

GREAT TIPS! I have found all of this information very useful and hopefully will enjoy my new 8 very soon. I will be trying to get the best deal at the end of the month!! Thanks for all the advice. :D

i have had a hard time finding the invoice price for a '04 GT with 6spd/sunroof in cdn?

Is it usually about $2000 below MSRP?
I'd like to have this to go back to the Toronto dealer with, who wouldnt' budge

I just ordered an 05 Sunlight Silver for $500 over invoice from Skagit Mazda. Now I have to wait for delivery. They said 6-8 weeks. Does this sound accurate?

I had a salesman here in Portland quote me $600 below invoice for a number of different configurations of RX-8's. These are all 2005 models, does this sound good to anyone?

I ordered an '05 at July 8th, still no car. It may be faster for you now that '05s are showing up. 6-8 weeks was the figure they gave me, ended up being twice that. Worth the wait for an '05 I think, especially with no haggling S-plan.
